Chapter 215

In the 《Turtle Origin Strategy》 there is a feng shui marvelous formation, called the Black Tortoise Suppress Spirits Grand Formation, which not only can suppress the grand formation, but also can summon the wondrous power of the Northern Black Tortoise Star Region to conceal the dragon vein.

Zhang Jian naturally would not be satisfied merely with the concealing function; during this period he comprehended the entire 《Turtle Origin Strategy》 and deduced from it a special feng shui grand formation, called the Four Symbols Concealing Dragon Grand Formation.

Using the power of the Four Symbols to suppress feng shui and nourish the dragon vein.

The Four Symbols divine beasts—he already has three of them by his side.

Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, White Tiger; among them, Feng Ling possesses the true phoenix form and can borrow phoenix power to suppress the Vermilion Bird position; his father-in-law is the White Flood Dragon, and flood dragons also have a dragon aspect, so he can use this to suppress the Azure Dragon position; the Black Tortoise can be guarded by his protector Xuan Jiu taking the seat, or by his grandson, that little white turtle, taking the seat—either works.

The sole missing White Tiger position guardian deity can only be sought within the Tongshan Dao Tong.

Once the Four Symbols Concealing Dragon Grand Formation is formed, adding a town-object—either the Qianyuan Golden Cauldron or the Mountains Rivers State Diagram for suppression—can conceal the dragon vein and, using the power of the Four Symbols, absorb the feng shui of an entire prefecture to nourish the dragon vein into form, further refining the Crimson Dragon Pearl.

The four divine beasts of the feng shui suppression grand formation can also cultivate with the aid of the grand formation, especially the White Flood Dragon, who can use the Crimson Dragon Pearl to comprehend the path of dragon transformation.

If his arrangement succeeds, it will not only allow the Zhang family to ascend to the Nine-Five and himself to achieve immortality and godhood, but also gain four divine beasts of Yuan-Shen level as guardians for the Zhang family.

Truly a case of gaining much with one effort!

The abacus calculation is very well done.

But to complete this Four Symbols Concealing Dragon Grand Formation, many difficulties remain.

Zhang Jian first communicated this matter with Feng Ling, Xuan Jiu, and Bai Nu; these three had no objection and instead readily agreed.

Especially Bai Nu, after passing the thousand-year Daoist tribulation, his next task is to retread the path of dragon transformation.

……

Tongshan Dao Tong, Beheading Demon Peak

Having received Zhang Jian's request from Bai Xianyun, Beheading Demon True Lord's expression showed some astonishment.

"True Lord, the young master has also self-created a feng shui secret art, and he had Xianyun send it back, asking True Lord to help check for omissions and fill the gaps!"

Bai Xianyun raised her hand and handed over the jade slip she held.

"Four Symbols Concealing Dragon Secret Art?"

On the chief seat, Beheading Demon True Lord took it, his divine sense swept over, and a hint of strange color appeared in his clear, pure eyes.

Even judging by her gaze, she could not help but feel a hint of surprise in her heart.

This Four Symbols Concealing Dragon Secret Art can be said to be a top-tier feng shui grand formation; once successfully arranged, the benefits are immense.

"Ah Yu's comprehension of the arts between heaven and earth has already neared the Great Dao; with a raise of hand or step, he can create a top-tier feng shui grand formation—this level of comprehension ability is nearly that of an immortal god!"

Beheading Demon True Lord pondered for a moment and found that even she could not pick out the slightest flaw within it.

Deleting any part of the secret art's structure might cause problems in this feng shui numerology grand formation.

Adding anything would be overdoing it.

Beheading Demon True Lord's gaze fell upon Bai Xianyun, seeing her eager-to-try look, she could not help but smile slightly and said.

"Then let you go!"

"Many thanks, True Lord, for granting this opportunity!"

Bai Xianyun heard this and was overjoyed.

Watching the elated Bai Xianyun depart, Beheading Demon True Lord's expression also revealed a hint of smile.

In an instant her figure vanished within the Beheading Demon Hall.

……

Within Jingdu City, the Zhuangyuan Manor

Zhang Jian was comparing Zhang Yi and Zhang Zhao's elementary studies progress; Qi Yuhua was currently busy arranging Zhang Lu's marriage and could not keep up.

Under the jujube tree, the two mud monkeys were at this moment honestly reciting the few elementary articles taught by Confucius.

Seeing Zhang Yi and Zhang Zhao's foundations solid, Zhang Jian let out a hint of smile.

Compared to Qi Yuhua, Zhang Yi and Zhang Zhao obviously feared Zhang Jian this father more; the old father possesses a natural awe in bloodline, residing at the top of the household food chain.

At this time, Zhang Yi, who carries dragon blood, also dared not have the slightest mischievous or troublesome action.

Seeing the lessons finished reciting, Zhang Jian's face then showed a smile; the two mud monkeys immediately cheered and ran off.

Seeing this, Zhang Jian gave a dry cough, and the two immediately ran back obediently, putting their books into the carrying basket and stepping away.

To the side, Qi Yuhua in a red robe, surrounded by Yuyu and Qu Lian, walked over; her lower abdomen already slightly bulged—this is another pregnancy.

"Husband!"

Her face beamed with a smile, looking extremely happy.

"Has the Xia family agreed?"

Zhang Jian's gaze swept over.

Qi Yuhua nodded slightly.

"In a few days we can present the betrothal gifts; Lu Ge'er is also a fortunate one—I inquired about this Xia Commandant's daughter as a concubine: her appearance is lovely, her character also good!"

Zhang Jian nodded slightly.

The two of them chose for Zhang Lu a daughter from the household of a Deputy Commander of the Jingdu City Garrison, a legitimate daughter.

That Garrison Commander is the deputy leader of Guanghua Gate, rank not high, but also possesses considerable real power; with Zhang Jian and his wife acting as matchmakers, for Zhang Lu it is still quite satisfactory.

Zhang Lu himself also confirmed it: although the daughter of a military household cannot be called a lady of noble boudoir, he himself likewise has not yet been able to obtain a capital official's status, so it is a match of equals.

Zhang Jian nodded slightly; Zhang Lu is a close family member; early marriage also benefits his promotion in the military.

Throughout history, no dynasty would trust a mere naked official.

The difficulty of promotion for naked officials is often several times that of other officials, and even reaches a point where promotion becomes impossible.

After discussing Zhang Lu's marriage, Zhang Jian again took Qi Yuhua's hand, slightly used spiritual power to nourish her, and then his face showed a smile.

Qi Yuhua's body is very healthy; this pregnancy will have no problems.

"Husband, has Elder Sister Bai mentioned coming to Jingdu City?"

Qi Yuhua's words refer to Bai Liying.

Zhang Jian shook his head and said, "She has returned to the True Dragon Dao Academy!"

Bai Li Ying had been worried about Bai Nu's millennium divine tribulation, so she returned to Bai Shui; after Bai Nu successfully passed the tribulation, she then returned to the True Dragon Dao Academy far in the northern lands.

Qi Yu Hua secretly shook her head, sometimes unable to understand Bai Li Ying's choice.

This might be what is meant by 'you, not being a fish, cannot know the joy of fish!'

The couple spoke some private words, and at that moment Zhang Jian raised his head, only to see a divine light appear in the void, and Bai Xian Yin's petite figure suddenly leapt out from the void.

"Xian Yin greets the young master, madam!"

The small figure was dressed in plain white clothes at this time, and although her face was pink and tender, it was full of smiles.

Seeing her expression, Zhang Jian then smiled and said.

"It seems Xian Yin has brought us good news!"

Bai Xian Yin laughed and said, "Young master, on this journey I have brought you a spiritual beast, the White Tiger!"

"Oh?!"

Zhang Jian's eyes moved.

Seeing Zhang Jian's expression, Bai Xian Yin laughed hehe at this moment, she patted her small chest, and then said.

"Young master, it is Xian Yin herself!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian laughed hahaha.

"Good, with Xian Yin's assistance, great undertakings will surely succeed!"

This time he has, in a sense, dug away the corner of the Wall of the Slay Demon True Lord.

In the divine mountain, there are myriad treasures and splendors; within it, many spiritual beings have been nurtured, among which is a massive Geng Metal Divine Mountain; within the Geng Metal earth veins lie numerous Geng Metal earth spirits, part of which have manifested into the divine form of the winged White Tiger strange beast, and Bai Xian Yin is of the lineage of the Geng Metal White Tiger.

And she is the king of this clan.

From childhood, she has acknowledged the Slay Demon True Lord as her master and cultivated in the Slay Demon Peak.

With Bai Xian Yin's help, this greatest problem was solved in the blink of an eye.
